Mad at everyone

Do you ever have one of those days where you're just in a funk or something and you are mad at everyone?

I woke up this morning knowing that I'd have to go to my mom's school today to help her. It was not my idea of fun, but I went unwillingly. It wasn't too bad, but I was in a relatively good mood even though my patience was thin. We went to Walmart after we left my mom's school because my mom just got an i-Pod and wanted a case for it. I went unwillingly again. I HATE WALMART for sooooo many reasons, so I went in in a huff and began pushing my mom's buttons so we could leave as quickly as possible. Quickly meant in under 15 minutes, not 55.

My dad however has been making me mad today over stupid things. For one he is talking to me like I am a baby at times. My dad is questioning me about stupid stuff, like why I won't go to the gym... "I don't want to" was not a good enough justification for him. I don't know what it is, but little things like that are ticking me off today.

I'm mad at my sister for being the laziest thing on earth. NO EXAGGERATION. She does nothing, yet I am home less than she is and do 10x the work. Lazy.

I'm mad at friends... I'm mad at people who won't call me back or call me like they say they will. I'm mad that we're losing contact with each other. I'm mad at friends playing stupid. I'm mad at friends who I guess aren't living up to my expectations.

I'm mad at UCR. UCR as far as I'm concerned. It is a big person; a big bully. I don't like it. I'm mad that they chose to start summer school this week. I'm mad they don't offer classes I need when I need them. I don't like that everyone is so impersonal there. I don't like the feeling when you walk on campus. I don't like anything about it.

Am I coming off as arrogant or a snob or just pissed off? Whatever, I really don't care. It's just been one of those days... a Monday. Maybe as my dad says, this is just building character. Hah.

My sister graduated

She graduated yesterday and I can't believe it. I don't think she is ready for the real world. I also can't believe things are going to change... she's no longer in high school. She will be going to college. I won't be driving her to school anymore. I refuse. 

Anyways, the ceremony was alright. It was 95 degrees and we were in the school football stadium. There was a slight breeze at times, which helped. I arrived 2 hours early with my cousin Danielle to get good seats. They were good front row seats. We sat around talking about random school and family stuff. Then my dad and mom arrived about 4:10. The ceremony began at 5. My aunt and uncle (on my dad's side) arrived about 5:15. They were coming from LA and hit traffic.

The ceremony was short. 643 seniors and all their names were read and all the graduation speeches in an hour and 21 minutes. It was kind of sad to be in the stands where we were so far from the graduates. Also, we were in the direct sunlight, so not sure we got great pictures. We'll buy the pictures of her walking across the stage and getting her diploma. 

We went to TGI Fridays with the family afterward. We sat around eating and talking for over 2 hours. It was quite fun and good to catch up on family stuff and just talking.

Sleep and family

I am not one to go out every night. I'm not one to have an odd sleep pattern. I am USUALLY in bed at 10:30 or so and up at 6:00a.m. I'm usually up by 8 on weekends. I'm surprised I'm actually doing alright and am not ran down. I'm grouchy when I'm tired. I haven't been lately, which is surprising...

This quarter has been soooooo different. Every Friday night I go to Gameworks to play arcade games with my friends from 10:00-12:00a.m. It is usually about 1:00a.m. before I get to bed these nights. I've gone out with coworkers and other random friends to eat, shop, and other stuff. Usually I get home between 10:30 and 11:30 when I go out with them. It's been fun. But this is so out of character for me to go out 5-6 nights a week. It is not like I'm doing stuff I shouldn't.

Last weekend I went out Saturday night to a dance with a coworker. Got home at 1:30a.m. and bed about 2a.m. Then of course I went to Gameworks on the Friday before. The Thursday night I was actually home- I remember having a bad headache. The Wednesday I was up at 3:15a.m. to go to see Mark and Kim. I got I think 5 hours of sleep the night before. I remember being out the Tuesday night.

I have gone out EVERY night this week with the exception of Monday. Tuesday night I had to be at a play for school. I got home at 11:00p.m. from that and slept sooo soundly until 6:00a.m.. Wednesday night I was planning on staying home. A coworker called to remind me we were going to a mall 30 miles away to go shopping and get t-shirts made. It was 11:00p.m. before I got home. It was 11:30 before I got to bed and I was up at 6:00a.m.. Thursday night I had to go to a baseball game for school and write story on it. We got to tour the stadium and interview some players. It was 12:00a.m. before I left the stadium. I went to bed at 1:00a.m. and woke up at 6:30a.m.

Last night I HAD EVERY intention of staying home, but my friends I've been going to Gameworks with invited me to see a play at one of the colleges, since one of our friends was in it. THE PLAY SUCKED. I was gone from 7p.m.-2:00a.m. My cousin designed the makeup for the play. There was the play, then afterward we went out to eat. My cousin tagged along with my group of friends and we ate at IHOP. We aired dirty laundry on each other. It was quite fun. We talked at IHOP until 1:30a.m., when I knew for my sake I had to call it a night. It was 2:30 before I got to bed by the way. I was up at 9, so I did get 6 1/2 hours, which is more than I can say I've got lately.

As for family, they're now teasing me that they don't know me. I am only home to eat or sleep. Tuesday and Wednesday night I've left home about 6 or 7p.m. I get home from school about 5. Thursday night I wasn't home at all. Friday night I wasn't planning on going out, but did and left at 7p.m. I was only home 2 hours. My parents brought up the fact how they never see me anymore and how I should stay around to get to know them.
Tonight I plan to stay home. Yes. Indeed.
